Kevin Costner's Ex-Wife Marries Former Neighbor After Divorce

Christine Baumgartner, the ex-wife of actor Kevin Costner, has remarried Josh Connor, a longtime family friend and former neighbor, less than two years after finalizing her divorce from Costner. The wedding took place at the Santa Ynez Ranch vineyard in Santa Barbara, California, in a heartfelt and intimate outdoor ceremony attended by around 100 guests, including their children from previous marriages. Baumgartner and Connor became engaged in January 2025, following public confirmation of their relationship after being spotted together in mid-2023. The divorce between Costner and Baumgartner was finalized in early 2024 after a bitter split involving a legal battle over child support, with Costner ordered to pay over $63,000 monthly. Guests described the wedding as magical and joyful, highlighting the couple's focus on building a peaceful, authentic life together. Baumgartner has been active in charitable work through the OmniPeace Foundation, while Costner has been linked to a new partner.
